Answer:

y = 3x + 5

Explanation:

Line y = 3x - 8; slope = 3

Parallel lines, slope is the same so slope of the line that parallel to the line y = 3x - 8 is also 3

Passing thru (1,8)

y - 8 = 3(x - 1)

y - 8 = 3x - 3

y = 3x + 5

Answer:

y = 3x + 5

Parallel lines have the same slope so the equation will have the same slope. The y-coordinate is the new y-intercept, so the equation is y = 3x + 8

Hope this helps
